***** yeah Dane

It is if you call JA17 Miles Davis. 😉

Bracketing Kelce with Edmunds and a db isn’t the worst idea…. Jam him at the line and stick him between Milano/Edmunds and Johnson/Neal could work well. Particularly if they jam him at the LOS and treat Kelce like a blocker within 5 yards. Groot and Epenesa will help with this. Their length/height created issues for him scrambling outside and hitting dump offs/screens outside.

The Raiders are one of the few teams where they’re more likely to hire minority candidates by track record….. especially if Mark Davis wants to preserve his fathers legacy.

Interesting. That means he have actually done a better job than it appears on paper. 😂. Is there a link or anything to that info?

Sully is the festering boil on Eyore’s taint.

I’m the Steelers defense….. at least they forced a punt.

I’m a bit surprised that folks aren’t aware that the nickname “Angel of death” already belongs to Josef Mengele, and no one should touch it with a ten foot pole. Even linking to the slayer song about the guy…. It’s not like the lyrics are fantasy; the first word is Auschwitz…. 😬. Yikes folks. 🤦‍♂️

Seems odd, but it’d be a soft landing working with a coach you’ve worked with before.

Probably not. I really wouldn’t be surprised if he ends up being Daboll’s DC choice if Daboll gets a HC job. It would also satisfy the Rooney interview requirement for coordinators.

Their schemes aren’t as different as they look on the surface. They’re philosophically very similar (limit big plays and force mistakes), especially with the backend where there’s a lot of disguised zone coverages. The big difference in the secondary is McD/Frazier use more robber and cover 3 than Fangio. Front seven is where the bigger differences are seen. Fangio likes to have 1-2 D linemen 2-gap and free up linebackers to make plays…. However, neither are big Blitzers and love to simulate A gap pressure with safeties and linebackers in 43 under and nickel. Fangio though tends to cater the front seven scheme to available personnel though, so he’d adapt if he had to. I think McD and Fangio could blend their defenses together pretty easily. I doubt that Fangio comes here though. It’s more likely that he latches on with an offensive HC to maintain autonomy, and he didn’t screw the pooch enough to need a career “reset”.

Worst part is extra paperwork to pay the full tax burden of your state of residence unless there’s reciprocity. In the other states you basically get a tax credit for the taxes paid elsewhere. Basically…. If you live in NY or Cali you’re screwed. If you live in Florida or Texas you only pay taxes to other states. Most of the mid Atlantic and SE have similar tax rates to streamline the reciprocity which is one reason why I moved to VA when I was touring.

I think a fair amount of folks devalue Wallace due to his physical limitations. While he’s not the biggest or fastest CB, his on field intelligence and experience make him an additive piece in our secondary where all the starters end up being greater than the sum of parts….. A long winded way of saying Wallace has more value to the Bills than other teams, and what might look like an overpay may be legitimate retention value.

That and the Packers peaking right after Dallas and knocking the 49ers out three years in a row.

Depending on the Rodgers/Adams situations in GB….. Valdez-Scantling may be on Beane’s radar. They brought him in for a pre draft visit. Plus, MVS has used his freakish size/speed combination to become a good outside blocker and deep threat; can’t teach 6’4” & 4.39. I’m sure McB noticed that Davis is the only WR who really blocks bubble screens well.

Mark Davis’s haircut is as old as Frazier. For some reason I don’t think that’ll matter much. He’s likely more concerned about stability and restoring the franchises reputation after the Gruden emails. An established minority coach accomplishes that, and Frazier is a top candidate who’s defense stopped the Chiefs this year.

That would be my contention unless they actually want to move in a different direction.

Carrs repeatedly stated he wants to be a Raider for life.

Are they planning on cutting him a year early? He’s only a $20MM cap hit in 2022 which is nothing for a QB. "There's still more, and I want to do it here," Carr said over the summer. "I don't want to do it anywhere else. I've said it over and over again -- I'd probably quit football if I had to play for somebody else. I'm a Raider for my entire life, and I'm going to root for one team for the rest of my life, and it's the Raiders. I just feel that so strong in my heart." https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/32369755/sources-derek-carr-discuss-contract-extension-las-vegas-raiders-season?platform=amp

If it’s to Vegas that issue is mitigated a bit by Carr being an experienced QB that’s worked in multiple systems. I’d much rather have that pair go to the NFC though.

You’d need the other UNC alumni RB named Williams for that.

One can only imagine the type of air play a 70-80 yard Hail Mary would get.

Another name - should he get fired - is Fangio. McD may like the idea of having a coordinator with HC experience.
